Response Shoot Plan
For my first shoot, I plan to take close up images of nature, specifically flowers and leaves, with strong lighting so that the image focus has good lighting while the background is darker, so the focus is much bolder (in the style of Heather Angel). However, to bring more of my own style of photography so as not to directly emulate Heather Angel, I will take images of more colourful subjects (whereas Heather Angel's images tend to be of more duller subjects). Since I will be reliant on natural lighting, I will need to take the images during specific weather and lighting, giving me a much shorter window to get the images I need. Health & Safety: Since some images will likely be taken near water, the camera must be kept a minimum 1 metre away from it. Appropriate footwear will need to be worn. Equipment: Camera, tripod, macro lense |

Shoot Evaluation
Considering this is a preliminary shoot, I am very happy with these images. I feel they capture the idea I wanted very well, they show the Heather Angel style whilst also showing the colourful, close up style I wanted too. I was also satisfied with the strong backgrounds and small depth of field I wanted from the images. If I was to the this shoot again, I would definitely use a tripod, as I had difficulty keeping the images in focus due to wind being present. I would also make sure to take more care with lighting, as the natural light had a habit of changing often.
